The Speaker, Arewa Youth Assembly, Mohammed Salihu Danlami, while speaking to newsmen in Kaduna on Thursday noted that the removal of the fuel subsidy is a tough but courageous decision by the present administration, saying that the previous administration failed to take such decisive action.
He commended the efforts of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Ltd in addressing the nation and promptly making adjustments to the price of PMS to tackle fuel hoarders in parts of the country. He further explained that subsidy removal is in conformity with the Petroleum Industry Act 2021 which provides total deregulation of the petroleum downstream section to drive investment and growth.
